Film and Modernity (Paris Version) | University of Kent 09/25/21 Film and Modernity (Paris version) | University of Kent Film and Modernity (Paris version) View Online This module investigates the relationship between film, modernity and modernism through the analysis of the works and career of Jean-Luc Godard, whose oeuvre can be largely defined by a desire to challenge the traditional boundaries between film and reality, fiction and documen-tary, autobiography and history, and film theory and film practice. In addition to being a pro-tagonist in the launching of a film movement preoccupied with the “here and now” of French society, Godard has engaged with a number of trends in film criticism and film theory. The analysis of his works will therefore allow for an examination of a number of questions that have defined the study of film, from auteurism to a more interdisciplinary approach to the cin-ema, from Bazin to Eisenstein, from filmmaking as sociology to filmmaking as self-investigation. 1.

  • Georges Mélièswas One of the Most Important Pioneers of Early Cinema
    Georges Méliès was one of the most important pioneers of early cinema. A successful magician and owner of the Theatre Robert-Houdin in Paris, Méliès attended the first screening of the Lumiere Cinematographe on December 28, 1895. In February of the following year, Méliès purchased a motion picture camera, and he began making his own films three months later. Cinema technology was just being developed, and Méliès studied the various new mechanisms, and then had projectors, printers, and processing equipment custom-made, based on other the inventions of other people or on improvements of his own design. Méliès' first films were straightforward cityscapes and event films, patterned after the short films of the Lumieres, but soon he was using the camera to document magic acts and gags from the stage of the Theatre Robert-Houdin. By late 1896, Méliès was incorporating his knowlege of the mechanisms of motion pictures with the format of the stage magic skit, producing his first "trick" films. These short films relied on multiple exposures to create the illusion of people and objects appearing and disappearing at will, or changing from one form to another. Over the next few years, Méliès was perhaps the most inventive filmmaker in the world. Not only did he experiment with what could be done inside the camera with special effects and multiple exposures, but Méliès led in the development of a film language based on separate scenes edited together in chronological order. At a time when most filmmakers were content with single-shot films, Méliès was stringing shots together to make mini-epics like "Cinderella" (1899), which used seven minutes and 20 separate scenes to tell the popular fairy tale.

I THE FILMS OF PETER KUBELKA "I feel a very great need to communicate. I work hundreds and hundreds of hours for one particular minute in my films and I could never produce such a minute by talking. The real statement which I want to make in the world is my films. Everything else is irrelevant." — Peter Kubelka, 1966 To date, six short but exquisitely realized films form the basis of Peter Kubelka's reputation as a master of personal cinema. Personal, for this Austrian filmmaker, involves an exploration of the medium to express his particular sense of reality. Kubelka began working with film in 1952 and MOSAIR IM VERTRAUEN was completed three years later. But it was with ADEBAR (1957), SCHWECHATER (1958) and ARNULF RAINER (1960) that Kubelka seized upon the fascinations that have absorbed him ever since.

  • Exploring Concepts of Compositing and Digital Visual Effects
    1 Invisibilising the Corporeal – exploring concepts of compositing and digital visual effects Submitted by Paul Johnson to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Research in English In October 2011 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract. This thesis seeks to explore the way in which invisibility as a concept becomes explicitly housed within digital compositing, visual effects (VFX) and certain attendant techniques. The chapters will establish how compositing and effects techniques can be seen as pushing modern filmmaking into concealing, and therefore visually releasing, certain physical structures within films’ images and their production. This shall be achieved by drawing upon a combination of texts that disseminate the technical nature and make-up of VFX, alongside discussion and theorisation of their use within cinema, together with other established film theory. I will examine cases of VFX techniques within cinema that can be used to investigate how their construction and utilisation create invisibility to accommodate and nullify the profilmic elements captured through the camera and aspects of technology. The chapters begin by examining how the work of Georges Méliès, whose films use the concept of invisibility to promote a breakdown of temporal and spatial qualities, become redeployed in certain modern digital effects-based films.

    CLOSE-UP ON A DRAWING BY GEORGES MÉLIÈS FOR THE MAN WITH THE RUBBER HEAD FROM THE DRAWING TO THE FILM A short history of the drawing Presentation of the drawing: The drawing done by Georges Méliès for the preparation of The Man with the Rubber Head dates from 1901, the year of the shooting of this 'trick film'. Jacques Malthête 1, Méliès' great-grandson, describes it as follows: 'Chemistry laboratory, at the centre of which is an enormous bearded head on a table, connected, on the right, to a bellows activated by a bearded man.'2 This set draft with characters is drawn in ink and coloured pencil, the pencils forging an undeniable sympathy between the drawing and the viewer. The technique used confirms that this is not a drawing that Méliès might have executed in the 1930s at the request of Henri Langlois, co-founder of the Cinémathèque française. In fact, for that 'commission', Méliès used only ink and signed in capital letters. This preparatory document was done on the back of a sheet of headed notepaper from Méliès' Manufacture de films pour cinématographes . As often, he used all types of media to execute his numerous drawings with a nimble hand. The black star, symbol of his brand, appears above Méliès' head when the drawing is held up to the light. On the side, one also notices a 'Star Film' in relief, the paper marked by the dry stamp. The restoration of the drawing The drawing, initially glued to a larger-sized piece of cardboard, was restored in 2002.
